Hey Ryan, First of all, Welcome and thanks for showing your interest in Fedora QA. You can start by sending a request to the Fedora QA FAS group [https://admin.fedoraproject.org/accounts/group/application_screen/qa] You can start off by testing updates in [http://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/] for Fedora 24 , Fedora 25 and Fedora 26. Update testing is where a tester tests a package and gives out a +1 Karma for PASS and -1 Karma for FAIL. You can go to bodhi.fedoraproject.org where you can sort the packages with Fedora Releases and tags viz "pending" & "testing" . You can read much about update testing here [1]. You can also, use fedora-easy-karma for giving out feedbacks. you can start with Release Validation testing. In Release Validation all you need to do is to check the nightly/TC/RC against certain criteria. For example, let's take the latest alpha (Fedora 26 Branched 20170513), you can run test cases which are mentioned [2] and submit your results in the test matrix. Note that each of the test cases[3] will have "How to test" section which will have the steps (to be executed sequentially) and if the results match with the expected results you can mark it as pass by editing the wiki page {{result|PASS|<fas_username>}} . Always make sure to check for "Associated release criterion" which can be found on the top of test case page , if your test case fails you can mark it fail by editing the wiki page {{result|FAIL|<fas_username>}} and file a bug at RHBZ [4] under Fedora. You can always find the ‘current’ validation pages using these addresses: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Test_Results:Current_Installation_Test https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Test_Results:Current_Base_Test https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Test_Results:Current_Desktop_Test https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Test_Results:Current_Server_Test https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Test_Results:Current_Cloud_Test For Automation, you can start looking at Taskotron [https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Taskotron] and Open QA[https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/OpenQA].
